[#505000]I've been meaning to ask this for awhile. I'm a big softie (except when I'm at work) and it kills me when I bring the channel cats home. I love to catch 'em, I love to eat 'em, but I dread filleting them because they just won't DIE!!!! [/#505000]
[#505000][/#505000]
[#505000]Anyone have any tips, hints, or tricks to putting these tasty fish out of thier misery before they are filleted? I've tried everything I know and nothing seems to work. I finally just bite the bullet, turn on the fillet knife and go to work. I feel like the Jeffery Dahmer (except NOT into dudes) of catfish. [/#505000]
[#505000][/#505000]
[#505000]When I'm finished all in a cold sweat I hop in the shower for a few hours, curl up in a ball, and to try and wash away the guilt!!! [
] Nothing like lava soap and steel wool to wash away the emotional pain of filleting catfish (not to mention the top two layers of skin) !!!! [][/#505000]

[#505000]Why can't they be a hair more like trout that just go belly up if you look at them cross eyed when they swim by?[/#505000]
